February 2, 2010

Belgian Junior Rider Charlotte Verhesen acquired the 8-year old Brandenburg bred licensed stallion Samba Hit II. The dark bay stallion is a full brother to Samba Hit I, III and IV and the late double World Champion Poetin.

The 2002 born dark bay stallion is bred at the Landgestut Neustadt-Dosse and was the champion of the 2004 Brandenburg Stallion Licensing. Between 2005 and 2007 he stood at stud at the Dutch stallion station De Ijzeren Man.

In 2008 Samba's Sensation (by Samba Hit II x Quando Quando) became his first licensed offspring. The stallion will now stand at stud at K.I. Bloemenhof in Belgium.

Samba Hit II competed at the 2005 and 2006 Bundeschampionate in Warendorf and finished fourth twice. He is currently trained at S-level.

Verhesen will be competing the stallion at FEI Junior Riders level under the supervision of her trainer Mieke Lunskens
